Holodomor National Awareness Tour

The Holodomor National Awareness Bus has arrived in Alberta!
The Ukrainian Canadian Congress – Alberta Provincial Council is pleased to announce that the Holodomor Mobile Classroom (HMC) is officially on the road in Alberta, spreading the awareness about the man-made Famine of 1932-33 in which millions of Ukrainian were starved to death.

The Holodomor Mobile Classroom (HMC) is the centrepiece of the Holodomor National Awareness Tour, a project of the Canada-Ukraine Foundation, developed in parnership with the Holodomor Research and Education Consortium (HREC), the Ukrainian Canadian Research and Documentation Centre and the Ukrainian Canadian Congress. The project is funded through a grant from the Canadian federal government, the Ontario provincial government, Manitoba provincial government and private donations.

A lesson for the HMC has been developed and the experience underscores the consequences of hate, oppression and discrimination and the importance of tolerance, human rights and the rule of law.
